The Asus ZenBook Flip UX360CA is one of the weaker entries in the ZenBook series - a series which contains laptops we've recommended countless other times. The UX360CA is a bit of a harder sell. You pay extra for the hinge, the application of the touchscreen spoils the display quality, and it just doesn't feel as well-made as some of the other ZenBooks with normal laptop hinges.

Asus has been in a rich vein of form with the ZenBook range. It has been the go-to place to find an ultraportable laptop that won’t break the bank. However, this new 360-degree hinge version ultimately disappoints. Issues include a drop in build quality, a problematic trackpad and a display that, while good in several respects, has a dated and highly reflective screen architecture. Having liked and loved several previous mid-range ZenBooks, we were hoping to have similar feelings about the Asus ZenBook Flip UX360CA. Its concept is sound, and so is the hinge that brings that concept to life. However, the new benefits are outweighed by the new problems. Hopefully they’ll be addressed in a future update of this design.

Its overall performance isn’t quite up to scratch compared to other £750 laptops – you can get the same kind of performance from Asus’ own excellent UX305CA for £150 less, after all, but that model doesn’t come with a rotatable hinge. The Lenovo Yoga 700 is a little faster for roughly the same price as the UX360CA, but if you’re looking to save some money and aren’t fussed about the hinge, then I’d still recommend the UX305CA as my mid-range laptop of choice. It might not be a hybrid, but it’s just as fast as the UX360CA and shares the same high-end build quality.

Really, I've been recommending the Flip for all kinds of people. I even talked to diehard Macbook Air fans who wanted to know why Apple doesn't do the flippy 2-in-1 thing. Good question. (Update: said person bought the ASUS. They had a bit of a rough start with the "premium software" but, otherwise, are super happy with the switch)

We are undecided on which we like better: the ZenBook Flip's long-running battery, or its silent, fanless operation. We also appreciate the sleek, thin aluminum chassis at its low price. Furthermore, the IPS display and its wide viewing angles are a perfect match for a convertible system whose display will find itself bent through a host of contortions if it's indeed used as a 2-in-1.

I have always been a fan of convertible laptops, and ASUS has gotten good at making them. The configuration I reviewed wasn’t as powerful as the previous models, but the ASUS Zenbook Flip UX360C is still a great choice if you are looking a portable laptop, provided you have an extra AED3499 set aside.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.
